The Program for AI and Research in Cardiovascular Medicine (PARC) leverages artificial intelligence to improve the interpretation of cardiovascular diagnostic data. Our innovative research has the power to facilitate precision medicine and improve patient outcomes.
About our Research
At The University of Kansas Medical Center, we are developing a collaborative research program reevaluating electrocardiograms (ECG) both in patients without established heart disease and those with cardiac abnormalities, like conduction diseases, arrhythmias and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for heart failure.
We are investing in a large database linking clinical ECGs to clinical outcomes that we hope to leverage for training predictive AI algorithms. We hope to pursue research in novel analytic methods and machine-learning techniques to improve diagnostic and predictive utility. Eventually, our goal is to bring the fruits of such research for implementation in clinical practice to improve diagnostics, patient risk stratification and target appropriate therapeutics.
